FSK insulation tape is reinforced with fiberglass scrim with a foil, scrim, and Kraft laminate backing. The reinforced aluminum foil tape offers high puncture and tear resistance, ensuring a long life and durability in various conditions and applications.

FSK stands for Foil/Scrim/Kraft, which refers to the three layers of material that make up the tape. The foil layer provides a reflective barrier that helps to prevent heat loss, the scrim layer provides reinforcement, and the kraft paper layer provides a backing that helps to keep the adhesive from sticking to itself. It is a flame retardant, vapor-barrier, and it is one of the most commonly used facings in the insulation industry.

FSK insulation tape is a durable and weather-resistant tape that can withstand a wide range of temperatures. It is also a cost-effective way to seal and patch insulation, and it is easy to use. It can also be used for patching rips and tears in foil-facing insulation and can be used with fiberglass duct wrap for added strength.

FSK Tape Applications:

FSK insulation tape is used for sealing and patching FSK ductwork and insulation and provides a finished look for exposed HVAC systems.FSK is the basic insulation facing.

FSK Tape Features:

  • Scrim layer bends with the primary facing providing integrity to the insulation and a strong, finished, appearance.
  • Release liner provides easy removal for efficient application on the job site.
  • High-tack synthetic rubber adhesive forms an instant bond.
  • Moisture-, mold-, and UV-resistant design.
